The American "Old West" (aka "The Wild West") is the history, geography, people, lore and cultural expression of life in the Western United States during the 19th century.  Through treaties with other nations and native people, political compromise, technological innovation, military conquest, establishment of law and order, and the great migration of settlers, the United States expanded from coast to coast.  In securing and managing The Old West, the federal government greatly expanded it powers, as the nation grew from an agrarian society to an industrialized nation.  First promoting settlement and exploitation of the land, by the end of the 19th century the federal government became steward of remaining open spaces.  As the American Old West passed into history, the myths and lessons of the West took firm hold in the imaginations of Americans and non-Americans alike.
